Nonlinear Dynamics of Beliefs over Social Networks
Offered By: Santa Fe Institute via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive lecture on the nonlinear dynamics of belief formation in social networks. Delve into a model that incorporates external factors like social network effects and internal factors such as biases and networked belief representations. Discover how groups overcome deadlock to form strong beliefs, how social and belief system structures shape group decisions, and how personal biases of a few can significantly influence group-level beliefs. Gain novel insights into complex social systems in nature and society, and consider new approaches for designing distributed behavior in engineered networks of social agents. This 59-minute talk by Anastasia Bizyaeva from the AI Institute in Dynamic Systems at the University of Washington, Seattle, offers a rigorous examination of belief dynamics in social contexts.
